Weather in May
Temperature
In Gordo, stepping into May brings a gentle temperature nudge, moving slightly up from April's moderately hot 74.5°F (23.6°C) to a still warm 82.4°F (28°C). Gordo temperatures generally rest at a low of 61.5°F (16.4°C) during the May nights.Heat index
In May, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Enduring exposure and ongoing activity could cause a sense of fatigue and subsequent heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
